Okay this is... not good. The remixed music for "Like a Prayer" is nice, but Madonna's vocals just aren't there. The original song was so vibrant and powerful. This version feels like I'm listening to a 45 RPM album and it's dragging and warbling. It felt very lackluster, despite the theatrics.

"Future", on the other hand, much nicer. Madonna didn't have to try to hit any notes, the choreography was tight and the music was perfectly paced.

Probably best thing about Netherlands winning (as honestly, I didn't rate the song), its near enough for me to consider going to next year!

I am surprised Sweden scored under 100 from the public vote, Germanys 0 wasn't surprising to me. Well, a little surprising it scored so low, i expected a dozen or so at least more than anything but i didn't expect it to do highly well. The UK try to play it too safe with staging, and never go far enough to stand out lately.
